As others have said, at this size and price it is extremely good value. However, the first half of the cigar was completely tasteless with only very light smokey taste. At the half way point it woke up and got some nutty, tea and leather tastes which were pretty decent by the final third. I think il have a try of the smaller vitolas of this range in the hope of similar experiences to the second half of this lancero

I tried this cigar in search for a reasonable price and one review suggested this might be the one. Alas no! It is a long stick that for the first third required alot of hard work to draw smoke with 3 puffs to get any flavour and the result was canoeing. The middle third faired better, only requiring two puffs and at last some flavour, but nothing to shout about. The last third however was good . It is a budget cigar after all but a hard smoke to enjoy.

An excellent cigar in my opinion, especially for the price. Cool, creamy and flavourful down to the very last inch – construction and burn were excellent and the Filipino taste was a refreshing change from the norm. Light and zesty. I enjoyed this cigar a *lot* more than its bigger brother, the Torpedo. Lasted me over an hour.

This cigar at this price and in this size is a genuine bargain. In terms of construction it's a bit rough around the edges, but in terms of draw and actual smoking it was flawless. The most important thing though is in terms of flavour, no harshness or sharp edges, I smoked it from top to bottom and never once got tired of it. If you enjoy the flavour profile then this cigar is unbeatable at this price.

Wow, very nice cigar, now in my top 5 for sure! Mild-medium in flavour, lots of smoke, nice white ash, perfect burn line and construction. I love the smaller ring sizes, and this is no exception, well worth a try, i will be buying more!
